Strong opinions, weakly held

The controversy over what, exactly, the “mobile bio weapons labs” we found in Iraq really are continues. The CIA came out and said they the trailers were designed for making bio weapons, now the State Department is saying not so fast. I’m inclined to believe that they’re not weapons labs, due to Occam’s Razor, if nothing else. (Imagine a world where these trailers were found by investigators in a different country without any political implications, and any presumption that they were part of Iraq’s seemingly missing weapons programs. Do you think that they’d conclude that these trailers, which could not be used no their own to make biological weapons and contain no traces of biological weapons or their precursors, would be identified as weapons labs?)
